⚠️ Due to Microsoft inept policy concerning Minecraft accounts I no longer have access to the game and thus won't maintain this software anymore

A Minecraft 1.7.10 (only) command line utility to analyze and mass edit region files.

This utility fully supports the Lord of the Rings mod (LOTRmod) v35.3.

Just type "make" in a Unix-like computer.

You'll need a Java Compiler (I used Java 1.8) and a zip package.

Please check the tool's wiki at https://lotr-minecraft-mod-exiles.fandom.com/wiki/Minecraft_Region_Scanner.

Initial public release. Supports v34.3 to v35.2 of the Lord of the Rings mod (LOTRmod)

Developed with Java 1.8 (recompile if your server is running under a lower version) and tested only on Minecraft 1.7.10 / Forge 10.13.4.1614.

See the tool's wiki.

All the main functionalities are implemented.

There's a list of possible unimplemented functionalities on the tool's wiki.

However I have no plan to port this to newer Minecraft versions as I will only use it for the LOTR mod.
